Consumer Description

I HAVE A 2010 TOYOTA PRIUS THAT REALLY HAS ME CONCERNED. TWICE RECENTLY WHEN APPLYING THE BRAKES, IT HAS LUNGED FORWARD AND I WAS FORCED TO PUNCH THE BRAKES VERY HARD WITH BOTH FEET TO MAKE IT STOP. BOTH TIMES I WAS ON CITY STREETS GOING ABOUT 35 MPH. IT REALLY SCARED ME. LUCKILY THERE WAS NOBODY IN FRONT OF ME OR I WOULD HAVE HAD AN ACCIDENT. I TOOK IT TO THE DEALER TO HAVE IT CHECKED OUT AND AM AWAITING THE VERDICT. *TR
